Hi,
My great-grandfather was Onofre Triay from Mahon in the Balearic Islands. Any other Triay's researching the family tree?

I found the following listing of Menorcans that emigrated to St. Augustine, Florida c. 1768 as part of Turnbull's Venture that may be of interest to you:

Triay, Anna Maria Mahon, Minorca
Triay, Francisco Ciudadela, Minorca
Triay, Gabriel Ciudadela, Minorca
Triay, Juan (1) Mahon, Minorca
Triay, Juan (2) Ciudadela, Minorca
Triay, Margarida (1) Alayor, Minorca
Triay, Margarita (2) San Felipe, Minorca
Triay, Maria Ciudadela, Minorca
Triay, Mateu Minorca
Triay, Pere/Pedro Mahon, Minorca

Sally - I am also related to Onofre Triay. He is my great-great grandfather. However, I have him as being born in New Orleans; and, his father, Joseph Triay, was born in Mahon, Balearic Islands, Spain on March 6, 1806. I have information back to the 1600's. I am sure we are speaking of the same person. I would be happy to share information if you are interested.

Thanks - Stephen

Hi,
Looks like a match. Was Onofre's wife Harriet Skinner?
If so, I am so happy. First time anyone seems to be researching this family.
Please e-mail direct at sgvjada@cox.net. Have much on the Skinner's also.
Sally

Stephen,
Would you mind helping me put together the Triay family again. I lost most of my information in Hurricane Katrina and am trying to replace what I lost.
thanks,
Sally
